This is an implementation of decimal floating point arithmetic based on
the General Decimal Arithmetic Specification:
http://speleotrove.com/decimal/decarith.html
and IEEE standard 854-1987:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_854-1987
Decimal floating point has finite precision with arbitrarily large bounds.
The purpose of this module is to support arithmetic using familiar
"schoolhouse" rules and to avoid some of the tricky representation
issues associated with binary floating point. The package is especially
useful for financial applications or for contexts where users have
expectations that are at odds with binary floating point (for instance,
in binary floating point, 1.00 % 0.1 gives 0.09999999999999995 instead
of 0.0; Decimal('1.00') % Decimal('0.1') returns the expected
Decimal('0.00')).
Here are some examples of using the decimal module:
>>> from decimal import *
>>> setcontext(ExtendedContext)
>>> Decimal(0)
Decimal('0')
>>> Decimal('1')
Decimal('1')
>>> Decimal('-.0123')
Decimal('-0.0123')
>>> Decimal(123456)
Decimal('123456')
>>> Decimal('123.45e12345678')
Decimal('1.2345E+12345680')
>>> Decimal('1.33') + Decimal('1.27')
Decimal('2.60')
>>> Decimal('12.34') + Decimal('3.87') - Decimal('18.41')
Decimal('-2.20')
>>> dig = Decimal(1)
>>> print(dig / Decimal(3))

Exponent of a 0 changed to fit bounds.
This occurs and signals clamped if the exponent of a result has been
altered in order to fit the constraints of a specific concrete
representation. This may occur when the exponent of a zero result would
be outside the bounds of a representation, or when a large normal
number would have an encoded exponent that cannot be represented. In
this latter case, the exponent is reduced to fit and the corresponding
number of zero digits are appended to the coefficient ("fold-down").
handle(self, context, *args)
with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --
set self.__traceback__ to tb and return self.
args = <attribute 'args' of 'BaseException' objects>
Contains the context for a Decimal instance.
Contains:
prec - precision (for use in rounding, division, square roots..)
rounding - rounding type (how you round)
traps - If traps[exception] = 1, then the exception is
raised when it is caused. Otherwise, a value is
substituted in.
flags - When an exception is caused, flags[exception] is set.
(Whether or not the trap_enabler is set)
Should be reset by user of Decimal instance.
Emin - Minimum exponent
Emax - Maximum exponent
capitals - If 1, 1*10^1 is printed as 1E+1.
If 0, printed as 1e1
clamp - If 1, change exponents if too high (Default 0)
Etiny(self) Returns Etiny (= Emin - prec + 1)
Etop(self) Returns maximum exponent (= Emax - prec + 1)
abs(self, a)
Returns the absolute value of the operand.
If the operand is negative, the result is the same as using the minus
operation on the operand. Otherwise, the result is the same as using
the plus operation on the operand.
>>> ExtendedContext.abs(Decimal('2.1'))
Decimal('2.1')
>>> ExtendedContext.abs(Decimal('-100'))
Decimal('100')
>>> ExtendedContext.abs(Decimal('101.5'))
Decimal('101.5')

Decimal('101.5')
>>> ExtendedContext.abs(-1)
Decimal('1')
add(self, a, b)
Return the sum of the two operands.

Decimal('3')
>>> ExtendedContext.add(Decimal(8), 5)
Decimal('13')
>>> ExtendedContext.add(5, 5)
Decimal('10')
canonical(self, a)
Returns the same Decimal object.
As we do not have different encodings for the same number, the
received object already is in its canonical form.
>>> ExtendedContext.canonical(Decimal('2.50'))
Decimal('2.50')
clear_flags(self) Reset all flags to zero
clear_traps(self) Reset all traps to zero
compare(self, a, b)
Compares values numerically.
If the signs of the operands differ, a value representing each operand
('-1' if the operand is less than zero, '0' if the operand is zero or
negative zero, or '1' if the operand is greater than zero) is used in
place of that operand for the comparison instead of the actual
operand.
The comparison is then effected by subtracting the second operand from
the first and then returning a value according to the result of the
subtraction: '-1' if the result is less than zero, '0' if the result is
zero or negative zero, or '1' if the result is greater than zero.

Decimal('-1')
>>> c.compare_signal(Decimal('2.1'), Decimal('2.1'))
Decimal('0')

minus(self, a)
Minus corresponds to unary prefix minus in Python.
The operation is evaluated using the same rules as subtract; the
operation minus(a) is calculated as subtract('0', a) where the '0'
has the same exponent as the operand.

Decimal('1.3')
>>> ExtendedContext.plus(Decimal('-1.3'))
Decimal('-1.3')
>>> ExtendedContext.plus(-1)
Decimal('-1')
power(self, a, b, modulo=None)
Raises a to the power of b, to modulo if given.
With two arguments, compute a**b. If a is negative then b
must be integral. The result will be inexact unless b is
integral and the result is finite and can be expressed exactly
in 'precision' digits.
With three arguments, compute (a**b) % modulo. For the
three argument form, the following restrictions on the
arguments hold:
- all three arguments must be integral
- b must be nonnegative
- at least one of a or b must be nonzero
- modulo must be nonzero and have at most 'precision' digits
The result of pow(a, b, modulo) is identical to the result
that would be obtained by computing (a**b) % modulo with
unbounded precision, but is computed more efficiently. It is
always exact.
>>> c = ExtendedContext.copy()
>>> c.Emin = -999
>>> c.Emax = 999

Decimal('823543')
>>> ExtendedContext.power(7, Decimal(7), 2)
Decimal('1')
quantize(self, a, b)
Returns a value equal to 'a' (rounded), having the exponent of 'b'.
The coefficient of the result is derived from that of the left-hand
operand. It may be rounded using the current rounding setting (if the
exponent is being increased), multiplied by a positive power of ten (if
the exponent is being decreased), or is unchanged (if the exponent is
already equal to that of the right-hand operand).
Unlike other operations, if the length of the coefficient after the
quantize operation would be greater than precision then an Invalid
operation condition is raised. This guarantees that, unless there is
an error condition, the exponent of the result of a quantize is always
equal to that of the right-hand operand.
Also unlike other operations, quantize will never raise Underflow, even
if the result is subnormal and inexact.
>>> ExtendedContext.quantize(Decimal('2.17'), Decimal('0.001'))
Decimal('2.170')
>>> ExtendedContext.quantize(Decimal('2.17'), Decimal('0.01'))

calculating integer division as described for divide-integer, rounded
to precision digits if necessary. The sign of the result, if
non-zero, is the same as that of the original dividend.
This operation will fail under the same conditions as integer division
(that is, if integer division on the same two operands would fail, the
remainder cannot be calculated).

remainder_near(self, a, b)
Returns to be "a - b * n", where n is the integer nearest the exact
value of "x / b" (if two integers are equally near then the even one
is chosen). If the result is equal to 0 then its sign will be the
sign of a.
This operation will fail under the same conditions as integer division
(that is, if integer division on the same two operands would fail, the
remainder cannot be calculated).

Returns self*other+third with no rounding of the intermediate
product self*other.
self and other are multiplied together, with no rounding of
the result. The third operand is then added to the result,
and a single final rounding is performed.
from_float(f)
Converts a float to a decimal number, exactly.
Note that Decimal.from_float(0.1) is not the same as Decimal('0.1').
Since 0.1 is not exactly representable in binary floating point, the
value is stored as the nearest representable value which is
0x1.999999999999ap-4. The exact equivalent of the value in decimal
is 0.1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625.
>>> Decimal.from_float(0.1)
Decimal('0.1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625')
>>> Decimal.from_float(float('nan'))
Decimal('NaN')
>>> Decimal.from_float(float('inf'))
Decimal('Infinity')
>>> Decimal.from_float(-float('inf'))
Decimal('-Infinity')
>>> Decimal.from_float(-0.0)
Decimal('-0')
is_canonical(self)
Return True if self is canonical; otherwise return False.
Currently, the encoding of a Decimal instance is always
canonical, so this method returns True for any Decimal.
is_finite(self)
Return True if self is finite; otherwise return False.
A Decimal instance is considered finite if it is neither
infinite nor a NaN.
is_infinite(self) Return True if self is infinite; otherwise return False.
is_nan(self) Return True if self is a qNaN or sNaN; otherwise return False.
is_normal(self, context=None) Return True if self is a normal number; otherwise return False.
is_qnan(self) Return True if self is a quiet NaN; otherwise return False.
is_signed(self) Return True if self is negative; otherwise return False.
is_snan(self) Return True if self is a signaling NaN; otherwise return False.
is_subnormal(self, context=None) Return True if self is subnormal; otherwise return False.
is_zero(self) Return True if self is a zero; otherwise return False.
ln(self, context=None) Returns the natural (base e) logarithm of self.
log10(self, context=None) Returns the base 10 logarithm of self.
logb(self, context=None)
Returns the exponent of the magnitude of self's MSD.
The result is the integer which is the exponent of the magnitude
of the most significant digit of self (as though it were truncated
to a single digit while maintaining the value of that digit and
without limiting the resulting exponent).
logical_and(self, other, context=None) Applies an 'and' operation between self and other's digits.
logical_invert(self, context=None) Invert all its digits.
logical_or(self, other, context=None) Applies an 'or' operation between self and other's digits.
logical_xor(self, other, context=None) Applies an 'xor' operation between self and other's digits.
max(self, other, context=None)
Returns the larger value.
Like max(self, other) except if one is not a number, returns
NaN (and signals if one is sNaN). Also rounds.
max_mag(self, other, context=None) Compares the values numerically with their sign ignored.
min(self, other, context=None)
Returns the smaller value.
Like min(self, other) except if one is not a number, returns
NaN (and signals if one is sNaN). Also rounds.
min_mag(self, other, context=None) Compares the values numerically with their sign ignored.
next_minus(self, context=None) Returns the largest representable number smaller than itself.
next_plus(self, context=None) Returns the smallest representable number larger than itself.
next_toward(self, other, context=None)
Returns the number closest to self, in the direction towards other.
The result is the closest representable number to self
(excluding self) that is in the direction towards other,
unless both have the same value. If the two operands are
numerically equal, then the result is a copy of self with the
sign set to be the same as the sign of other.
normalize(self, context=None) Normalize- strip trailing 0s, change anything equal to 0 to 0e0
number_class(self, context=None)
Returns an indication of the class of self.
The class is one of the following strings:
sNaN
NaN
-Infinity
-Normal
-Subnormal
-Zero
+Zero
+Subnormal
+Normal
+Infinity
quantize(self, exp, rounding=None, context=None)
Quantize self so its exponent is the same as that of exp.
Similar to self._rescale(exp._exp) but with error checking.
radix(self) Just returns 10, as this is Decimal, :)
remainder_near(self, other, context=None)
Remainder nearest to 0- abs(remainder-near) <= other/2
rotate(self, other, context=None) Returns a rotated copy of self, value-of-other times.
same_quantum(self, other, context=None)
Return True if self and other have the same exponent; otherwise
return False.
If either operand is a special value, the following rules are used:
* return True if both operands are infinities
* return True if both operands are NaNs
* otherwise, return False.
scaleb(self, other, context=None) Returns self operand after adding the second value to its exp.
shift(self, other, context=None) Returns a shifted copy of self, value-of-other times.
sqrt(self, context=None) Return the square root of self.
to_eng_string(self, context=None)
Convert to a string, using engineering notation if an exponent is needed.
Engineering notation has an exponent which is a multiple of 3. This
can leave up to 3 digits to the left of the decimal place and may
require the addition of either one or two trailing zeros.
to_integral_value(self, rounding=None, context=None) Rounds to the nearest integer, without raising inexact, rounded.
to_integral_exact(self, rounding=None, context=None)
Rounds to a nearby integer.
If no rounding mode is specified, take the rounding mode from
the context. This method raises the Rounded and Inexact flags
when appropriate.
See also: to_integral_value, which does exactly the same as
this method except that it doesn't raise Inexact or Rounded.
to_integral_value(self, rounding=None, context=None) Rounds to the nearest integer, without raising inexact, rounded.
imag = <property object at 0x7f75e133fc40>
real = <property object at 0x7f75e135d2b0>
Base exception class.
Used exceptions derive from this.
If an exception derives from another exception besides this (such as
Underflow (Inexact, Rounded, Subnormal) that indicates that it is only
called if the others are present. This isn't actually used for
anything, though.
handle -- Called when context._raise_error is called and the
trap_enabler is not set. First argument is self, second is the
context. More arguments can be given, those being after
the explanation in _raise_error (For example,
context._raise_error(NewError, '(-x)!', self._sign) would
call NewError().handle(context, self._sign).)
To define a new exception, it should be sufficient to have it derive
from DecimalException.

DecimalTuple(sign, digits, exponent)
count(self, value, /) Return number of occurrences of value.
index(self, value, start=0, stop=9223372036854775807, /) Return first index of value. Raises ValueError if the value is not present.
digits = _tuplegetter(1, 'Alias for field number 1') Alias for field number 1
exponent = _tuplegetter(2, 'Alias for field number 2') Alias for field number 2

Division by 0.
This occurs and signals division-by-zero if division of a finite number
by zero was attempted (during a divide-integer or divide operation, or a
power operation with negative right-hand operand), and the dividend was
not zero.
The result of the operation is [sign,inf], where sign is the exclusive
or of the signs of the operands for divide, or is 1 for an odd power of
-0, for power.

Cannot perform the division adequately.
This occurs and signals invalid-operation if the integer result of a
divide-integer or remainder operation had too many digits (would be
longer than precision). The result is [0,qNaN].
handle(self, context, *args)
with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --

Undefined result of division.
This occurs and signals invalid-operation if division by zero was
attempted (during a divide-integer, divide, or remainder operation), and
the dividend is also zero. The result is [0,qNaN].

Enable stricter semantics for mixing floats and Decimals.
If the signal is not trapped (default), mixing floats and Decimals is
permitted in the Decimal() constructor, context.create_decimal() and
all comparison operators. Both conversion and comparisons are exact.
Any occurrence of a mixed operation is silently recorded by setting
FloatOperation in the context flags. Explicit conversions with
Decimal.from_float() or context.create_decimal_from_float() do not
set the flag.
Otherwise (the signal is trapped), only equality comparisons and explicit
conversions are silent. All other mixed operations raise FloatOperation.

Had to round, losing information.
This occurs and signals inexact whenever the result of an operation is
not exact (that is, it needed to be rounded and any discarded digits
were non-zero), or if an overflow or underflow condition occurs. The
result in all cases is unchanged.
The inexact signal may be tested (or trapped) to determine if a given
operation (or sequence of operations) was inexact.

with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --
set self.__traceback__ to tb and return self.
args = <attribute 'args' of 'BaseException' objects>
Invalid context. Unknown rounding, for example.
This occurs and signals invalid-operation if an invalid context was
detected during an operation. This can occur if contexts are not checked
on creation and either the precision exceeds the capability of the
underlying concrete representation or an unknown or unsupported rounding
was specified. These aspects of the context need only be checked when
the values are required to be used. The result is [0,qNaN].

with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --

An invalid operation was performed.
Various bad things cause this:
Something creates a signaling NaN
-INF + INF
0 * (+-)INF
(+-)INF / (+-)INF
x % 0
(+-)INF % x
x._rescale( non-integer )
sqrt(-x) , x > 0
0 ** 0
x ** (non-integer)
x ** (+-)INF
An operand is invalid
The result of the operation after these is a quiet positive NaN,
except when the cause is a signaling NaN, in which case the result is
also a quiet NaN, but with the original sign, and an optional
diagnostic information.

with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --

Numerical overflow.
This occurs and signals overflow if the adjusted exponent of a result
(from a conversion or from an operation that is not an attempt to divide
by zero), after rounding, would be greater than the largest value that
can be handled by the implementation (the value Emax).
The result depends on the rounding mode:
For round-half-up and round-half-even (and for round-half-down and
round-up, if implemented), the result of the operation is [sign,inf],
where sign is the sign of the intermediate result. For round-down, the
result is the largest finite number that can be represented in the
current precision, with the sign of the intermediate result. For
round-ceiling, the result is the same as for round-down if the sign of
the intermediate result is 1, or is [0,inf] otherwise. For round-floor,
the result is the same as for round-down if the sign of the intermediate
result is 0, or is [1,inf] otherwise. In all cases, Inexact and Rounded
will also be raised.

Number got rounded (not necessarily changed during rounding).
This occurs and signals rounded whenever the result of an operation is
rounded (that is, some zero or non-zero digits were discarded from the
coefficient), or if an overflow or underflow condition occurs. The
result in all cases is unchanged.
The rounded signal may be tested (or trapped) to determine if a given
operation (or sequence of operations) caused a loss of precision.

Exponent < Emin before rounding.
This occurs and signals subnormal whenever the result of a conversion or
operation is subnormal (that is, its adjusted exponent is less than
Emin, before any rounding). The result in all cases is unchanged.
The subnormal signal may be tested (or trapped) to determine if a given
or operation (or sequence of operations) yielded a subnormal result.

with_traceback(...)
Exception.with_traceback(tb) --

Numerical underflow with result rounded to 0.
This occurs and signals underflow if a result is inexact and the
adjusted exponent of the result would be smaller (more negative) than
the smallest value that can be handled by the implementation (the value
Emin). That is, the result is both inexact and subnormal.
The result after an underflow will be a subnormal number rounded, if
necessary, so that its exponent is not less than Etiny. This may result
in 0 with the sign of the intermediate result and an exponent of Etiny.
In all cases, Inexact, Rounded, and Subnormal will also be raised.
